Faija [English translation]

Dad, you know why we're here

I know that you understand

Yeah, dad's role, a man's role model

My beginning, I got from you my roots and wings

I'll always look upwards at you

From everything, even though there was work and busyness

You hauled us back and forth on Ring 1 1

You took the three of us from one hobby to another

Only now do I understand the sacrifices that you made

And how much family values bring to life

And I see how mom still adores you

I'm holding back tears, words aren't enough now

I'm my father's son and proud of it

Dad, you know why we're here

I know that you understand

Dad, you know why we're here

I know that you understand

For the love of the game 2

I didn't always know how to say thank you

Even when we fought, it was never 'no can do'

You were strict, but you didn't get angry for no reason

When I moved away from home, I took some space to become independent as a man

And when I came back home, I came back as a friend

Your work is done, and the same work is starting for me

Your life lessons are a strong currency

I look at my own son and think of you

A photo on the shelf of how you carried me as a baby

How can I ever be enough like you

Dear dad, I want to thank you for everything

Dad, you know why we're here

I know that you understand

Dad, you know why we're here

I know that you understand

For the love of the game

Royalty has to raise a good man

Who carries his values and doesn't trample on hearts

I inherited from you the love of the game

And I'm here because of your love

Despite my mistakes and mischief

I got my place in the line of generations

I inherited from you the love of the game

And I'm here because of your love

Dad, you know why we're here

I know that you understand

Dad, you know why we're here

I know that you understand

Dad, you know why we're here

I know that you understand

For the love of the game

Dad

Dad, you know why we're here

I know that you understand

For the love of the game
